<< In the manual and in early advertisements for the Bugeye they show the fuel
line coming into a "T" in front of the carbs with a lines running from the
"T" across in front of the air cleaner's to each carb. These lines are then
clamped with a bolt in the center of the air cleaner's.

My question is this, did they ever actually produce a car with this setup? >>

How about that, always thought there was something funny about that drawing 
but never took time to figure out what was funny.  Do not recall ever seeing 
a car with that fuel line arrangement either.  If you look at the sales 
brochure notice that the crankcase breather tube is in two pieces and there 
is a chrome tube/can running along side the valve cover on the distributor 
side. What's that?  BTW for the rest of the list the engine transmission is 
shown painted in five colors, red, bronze brown, blue, dark green and pea 
green.  No truth in advertising in those days <G>.
